Can you get a rash from yeast infection?

Yes, a yeast infection can cause a rash. Yeast infections are caused by an overgrowth of the fungus Candida, which can occur on the skin, in the mouth, throat, vagina, or intestines. A yeast infection on the skin is also known as candidiasis or moniliasis.

Symptoms of a yeast infection can include:

- A red, itchy rash

- Blisters or scales on the skin

- Dry, cracked skin

- Sores or ulcers

- A burning or stinging sensation

- Itching

- A white or yellow discharge

Yeast infections are often treated with antifungal medications, which can be applied to the skin, taken by mouth, or inserted into the vagina. In some cases, lifestyle changes, such as avoiding sugary foods and wearing loose-fitting clothing, can help to prevent yeast infections.

If you think you may have a yeast infection, it's important to see a doctor to get diagnosed and treated.
